Welsman began his career performing as a singer-songwriter, recording with artists Laura Smith, Available Space, Jane Siberry, and Cherie Camp. Later he would arrange for internationally renowned recording artists: The Canadian Tenors with Sarah McLaughlan (The Perfect Gift), Loreena McKennitt (An Ancient Muse, and The Mask And Mirror), Stephanie Hardy (Brand New Skin) Allanah Myles (I Believe). He co-wrote with Cherie Camp and recorded the self-titled WEA album ‘Cherie Camp’, produced by Gene Martynec).

  • Anne's House of Dreams Montgomery, Lucy Maud
    Anne's House of Dreams Montgomery, Lucy Maud Published: 1917 Categorie(s): Fiction, Romance Source: http://www.gutenberg.org 1 About Montgomery: Lucy Maud Montgomery CBE, (always called "Maud" by fam- ily and friends) and publicly known as L. M. Montgomery, (November 30, 1874–April 24, 1942) was a Canadian author, best known for a series of novels beginning with Anne of Green Gables, published in 1908. Once published, Anne of Green Gables was an immediate success. The central character, Anne, an orphaned girl, made Montgomery famous in her life- time and gave her an international following. The first novel was followed by a series of sequels with Anne as the central character. The novels became the basis for the highly ac- claimed 1985 CBC television miniseries, Anne of Green Gables and several other television movies and programs, including Road to Avonlea, which ran in Canada and the U.S. from 1990-1996. Source: Wikipedia Also available on Feedbooks for Montgomery: • Anne of Green Gables (1908) • Anne of Windy Poplars (1936) • Anne of Ingleside (1939) • Anne of Avonlea (1909) • Anne of the Island (1915) • Rainbow Valley (1919) • Rilla of Ingleside (1921) • The Blue Castle (1926) • Emily of New Moon (1923) • Emily's Quest (1927) Copyright: This work is available for countries where copy- right is Life+70 and in the USA.

A group of people decided that if TV series like Star Trek could have fan conventions, then so could fans of Road to Avonlea. Initial planning commenced; a committee was formed. It would be held in Toronto that summer–“by the fans, for the fans.” Then, in March 2003, SARS hit the city of Toronto. At first, the committee members were not sure of what they should do.
